College Football Betting Trends
Oregon State
The Beavers are 2-6 against the spread in their last eight home games and 4-11 ATS in their last 15 conference games.
Utah
The Utes are 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 conference games, but 0-5 ATS in their last five following a win.
Prediction:
Utah has won three straight against Oregon State, but the Beavers have covered in four of the last five in this series. Oregon State has been a problem for Utah and the Utes are going on the road, which is a concern. However, I think Utah learned from its last road trip, a loss at USC. The Beavers also have suffered losses to the likes of Stanford and Hawaii. Utah’s defense is much stronger than both of those teams and will be able to contain Oregon State. Offensive, the Utes can control the line of scrimmage and impose their will over the Beavers.
